UNSPSC 50475902: Canned or jarred organic creation shallots

The variety of organic shallots known as organic creation shallots that have been canned or jarred for preservation.

UNSPSC 50475902 Canned or jarred organic creation shallots is a Commodity code that sees minimal recent activity in state and local procurement; the code does not map cleanly to the bulk food sourcing that actually dominates contemporary state and local purchasing under related food-supply categories. The recent opportunities tagged to this code instead reflect large-volume procurement of shelf-stable food products—canned vegetables, proteins, condiments, and prepared items—sourced by state health and human services agencies, departments of corrections, county social services, school districts, and state prison systems for institutional feeding programs, canteen operations, and food service supply. Issuing bodies span Texas health and human services commissions, Georgia and Oregon corrections and county agencies, and multiple school districts across the South and West. The work involves competitive bidding (IFB, RFQ, IWQ) on standardized line-item food lists with firm fixed pricing, delivery-within-days requirements, USDA grade compliance, and F.O.B. Destination terms; contracts typically run one to three years with renewal options.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas, Georgia, and Oregon. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission has posted multiple IFBs for consumables and food products serving state supported living centers, with responses due August 25, 2026 (HHS0017872, 20 line items, $1.5 million prior-period value) and October 23, 2026 (HHS0018082, 22 line items for Lufkin facility); the Comptroller of Public Accounts is procuring cafeteria food products for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice across five regional warehouses under IFB 304T-26-300CF with approximately 382 line items and an extended response deadline of May 4, 2026. In Georgia, Ben Hill County Schools posted a food bid due June 15, 2026, and Burke County Public Schools solicited school nutrition products with bids due June 5, 2026. The Oregon Department of Corrections requested approximately 7,616 cases of canned tomatoes under IFB S2910000017145 due June 19, 2026 (previous purchase at $13.75 per case). Gwinnett County posted an informal written quote for approximately 1,062 cases of shelf-stable food items due October 19, 2026 at the Gwinnett Senior Services Center.
